Q: How do I know if my plaster wall needs repair?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish. </p></div>

Q: Why are my walls cracking so much?

Drywall tends to expand and contract when temperatures and humidity levels change, and this repeated movement can lead to cracks in your walls, particularly around door frames. If you have multiple diagonal cracks, you may want to have your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-inspect-your-foundation.htm">foundation inspected</a>, as cracks can also be a sign of a bigger issue. </p></div>

Q: Why hire a professional for wall repair?

Q: Do you sand plaster wet or dry?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.</p></div>

Q: Can I repair ceiling cracks on my own?

• <div><p>While you should consult with a ceiling professional for larger cracks, especially if you&rsquo;re not sure what&rsquo;s causing your ceiling to crack, you can certainly try to repair small cracks on your own.
